This is a fun and exciting introduction to white white water river kayaking. We cover the following topics and skills: how to fit a river kayak, how to outfit the kayak, how to do a wet exit, basic strokes, safety considerations, river feature identification and running moving water in a kayak. Students will spend some time at the lake to practice skills and paddle two different sections of the Nanaimo River. Students should expect to carry kayaks and gear to and from the river.
